called cholera, at Center Point, Iowa, In
1873. Within q few weeks over forty per-
sons died from IL. The principal druggist of

in business there, sold Que hundred and
eight fifty-cent bottles Of Cham berlains
Collie, Cholera and DiarrhG Remedy, during,
the epidemic, and states that to the best of
his knowledge, it did not fail in single
instance. The local paper published there,
said the same. and spoke Of IL In the highest
terms. The Remedy was used in fully $40
cases, and not TO fail in single instance, Is
certainly remarkable, when SO many died
who were treated by physicians, or used
other medicines. The scourge was un-

EDITOR HERALD:
The Washington friends of both Mr.
Blaine and Senator She rman were greatly
surprised at the published statement that
the latter would be willing 10 take second
place on the ticket with tae former, but 1t
Is useles to deny that the following of the
Maine Statesmen view the report with graft
fcation, however much they may doubt ita
correctness On the other hand, the char
acteristica(ly courageous course of the Ohio
senator, in submitting his Presidential
prospect to the decision of the Republican
party in State convention assembled at
Toledo, is generally commended as wise,
proper. and patriotic. But, IL the RepubH-
can National ticket should by q happy
chance. be Blaine and Sherman, the part
might go further and fare worse, for it is ex-
tremely doubtful, whether q stronger com-
bination should be presented, as 1t is well
known, that the Democrats stand I'm almost
mortal dread of these two great statesmen,
who are probably the most emineat of
living republican leaders.
President and Mrs. Cleveland have re-
turned after pleasantly spending their
summer holidays in travelling on special
complimentary cars and steamers among
the picturesque scenery of northern New
York. do not mention this to condemn
the President for accepting such courtesies
at the hands or corporations, as did demo-
cratic newspapers when President Grant,
Hayes and Arthur, were the recipients of
similar favors, but merely to express my
personal good wishes for the Presidential
party on this occasion.
The count of the cash and securities of
the treasury which began May End, is pro-
crossing satisfactorily, and it is likely to be.
completed by the close of this week, as only
the gold coin remains to be counted at pres
ent; the grand total OF funds on hand foots
mp $4,000 900.
The accounts of the disbursing officers of
the treasury departments are being care.
fully examined also, and the result will be
announced In a few days. So far as can be
learned, only an apparent shortage OF 500.
has been found, but this will perhaps bal
ance before the search is finished.
Under the clever manipulation of Gen.
Black, the pension Office can hardly be con-
-sidered o model Institution, as viewed from
civil service standpoint, for it appears
that only democrats can stand the test of
examination. as not one republican has
been given o position ne matter how excel
lent an examination he passed, or how he
ranked on the listsof eligibles There is
clearly something wrong in the way the
civil service is worked in this bureau, and
an Investigation should be orde red as prac.

OUR OPPORTUNITY.

The proposition is too evident to
require argument, that if our village
, is to increase in population, pros
~perity and importance it will be
through manufactures. We now
have two prosperous establishments of
no mean proportions, but there is
room for unlimited expansion in this
direction. In order to secure them il
will be necessary for our citizens to
give them encouragement. There
are now two very important PROPOSE
=. tons pending-the brick-yard enter
prise of which mention has been
made, and the other is the. package
company, the plan and purpose Of
which was laid before the Board of
Trade on Monday evening, a report
Of which will be found elsewhere.
This project will bear the closest
scrutiny, and if found that the state.
ments and estimates of MIR. Morse
are in fact reliable, there ought to be
no hesitation in closing with him at
once. To build up in our midst an
enterprise which shall employ fifty or
sixty hands and disburse for labor and
material from five to SIX hundred
dollars week is of vast importance.
This additional amount of money
paid out principally for labor, will
be permanently added to our wealth.
1t is money SO distributed which
tells upon the general prosperity.
The wheels of business in every
branch would be fabricated and
move much more rapidly and easily.
Our population would be added to at
once, and our reputation as a live
business town very materially in.
creased.
This is the public consideration.
Those directly interested would Sc
cure excellent investment, as the
business is profitable, while the out.
lay is insignificant considering the
extent of the benefits.
flour people are in earnest in their
desire to build up the village, If they
believe our future depends upon
fostering manufactures, now is the
time to give substantial expression to
this belief. 1t will not require much
money, and similar opportunity will
not soon represent if this be not en-
braced.

A St. Cloud special dispatch con.
veys this startling intelligence:
An unusual phenomenon was wit.
messed by several persons in this
city last evening. A very bright
star was seen to start in the eastern
heavens and sink very gradually
toward the hori zon. fading from
sight until about two-thirds of the
distance down it seemed to stop
again and slowly disappear. The
performance lasted three or four
minutes.
The, omen Is pregnant even ap-
paling, Can it mean that oui Saint.

pirc? Or was the star prophetic OF
the extinction of Minneapolis as a
tl>uring center by her up river rival?

attach to little paper balloon.
